Very tall safety who also could become a good outside LB with some added weight. Covers a ton of ground in the secondary. Just needs to add some weight and  a little more quickness. Could see playing time as a true freshman. #1 rated safety in nation and #8 overall.

Keenan on the Crimson Tide:
"Alabama has the best fans in the world, so I wanted to let them know I was going to play for them for the next four years on a special day like this one just to keep the momentum going. I had been thinking for a long time how I would announce my commitment, and I really couldn't pick a better day than this."

"Coach Saban told me that they want to play me at receiver and line me up on the other side of Julio so teams will be forced to pick someone to double-cover," Allen said. "When I committed to Coach Saban, he was so excited that you could feel it over the phone. He was happier than I have ever heard him. He just told me welcome to the Alabama family and that he hoped I was ready to go to work."
